Node ID's in the media module

Usually I would hover over the object in the content folder to see the node-id's, but in the media folder all the urls are written using "url_alias. "

How do you get the ID of a certain node (object) in the media folder?

Already found the solution:

Look in the table ezurlalias.
The field source_url shows the url_aliases and the field destination_url shows the node (content/view/full/186) in the old fahioned way.

Hi,
in 3.3, the node and content IDs are printed "readable" in the admin interface... At least for the "content" tab, i'm not sure about the media tab.
Plus, you should be able to disable "URL Translation" completly in 3.3, which should give your the "old-fashioned" URLs. Probably, this can be done just for the admin-site, if you wish, but changed the variable "URLTranslation" in a site-design-specific override.

Hi Marc,

I'm still using ez 3.2.4. This version is using the url_alias in the media section and not in the content (still using url the old fashioned way).

In the media section the node ID and object ID are not being printed.

So the only way is to look them up in the DB.
